A primary care practitioner (PCP) is your personal doctor or Certified Registered Nurse Practitioner (CRNP) who will provide or arrange all of your health care needs. Your PCP will help manage your heath care needs. You and your family members who are enrolled in UPMC for You can all have the same PCP, or can choose different PCPs.
Your PCP may be a family and general practice doctor, a pediatrician, an internal medicine doctor, or a CRNP. Family and general practice doctors treat all family members. Most pediatricians treat children, and most internal medicine doctors treat adults. A CRNP is a registered nurse with advanced training in a specialty area, certified by the boards in that specialty area. A CRNP may diagnose a condition or prescribe medicine under the direction of a doctor.
